Re: Zmax

Tried the whole system a few years ago... can't say if it worked or not, I didn't notice any good or bad...

I will say that I tore my engine down within a year of using that, and my valves and pistons were still pretty filthy... but that could've been build-up from all the time it ran after I used it...

you have to use it over time to see a clean engine. if you have ever watched power block they say that it takes time for the chemicals to clean the actual pistons and what not.

My father first started using it about a year ago on his 04 dodge dakota 4.7l that he drives to and from work 60 miles each way. the first time he used it somewhere around 75k miles he noticed right away a difference in throttle response and 1mpg increase. according to his overhead display. ever since then he swears by it and uses it with every oil change. since then i started using it and i personally haven noticed any difference however i have alot less milage then he does( 60k as of yesterday) on the car so im assuming jus less build up.

again as far as cleaning the engine completly it would probably take years especially on a car that already has age on it.

but i look at it as a less corrosive version of seafoam that cleans the injectors and fuel lines.

Re: Zmax

I had a minibike and I used the whole treatment on it I saw some improvement. But that was a 1 piston engine.
